Noting that five of the six UNIDO offices in the Arab States were located in Africa and only one in Asia, he called on the Director-General to look into the possibility of improving the balance by opening an additional office in Jordan to attend to the future needs of Iraq, Palestine, his own country and the countries of the Arabian Gulf.
Observando que cinco de las seis oficinas de la ONUDI en los Estados árabes están distribuidas en África y sólo una en Asia, el orador pide al Director General que considere la posibilidad de corregir ese desequilibrio, inaugurando una oficina en Jordania que atienda a las futuras necesidades del Iraq, Palestina y los países del Golfo Arábigo y del propio país del orador.
